village idiot

Prior to the Industrial revolution, before swarms of people migrated from Small towns, villages, and farming hamlets to large industrial cities and Metropolises, the populations people were around all the time (their community) were so small, that if one person within that community was feeble of mind, they were designated the village idiot.

Think Adrien Brody's character in M. Night Shyamalan's "the Village" (2004)

TRIVIA
"Idiot" was a category in the U.S. Census back during the 19th Century which refered to mental retardation.
In the episode of Ren and Stimpy "Magical Golden Singing Cheeses" (Air date: November 11th, 1994) Stimpleton comes across the Man Eating Village Idiot, owner of the (see title). The Village Idiot agrees to the trade, but threatens that unless Stimpleton can prove his stupidity in a "battle of witlessness" he will eat Stimpleton.
To make a long and greusome story short, Stimpleton wins the contest, leaving the Man Eating Village Idiot dead from his own stupidity.

Village Idiot

A dangerous alcoholic drink consumed by idiots. Usually consists of Gin (50ml) and Vodka (50ml) with a splash of lemonade and Lime.

Originated from Plymouth, in the UK, during the summer of 2002 in celebration of George Bush and Tony Blair's excellent foreign policy decisions. The Village Idiot has since become a popular drink in New Zealand and the Kingdom state of Bhutan.

The most 'Village Idiots' consumed by one human being has never been documented as it's very difficult to count after three of four.
